-LRB- CNN -RRB- -- A woman who said she had a mother-daughter relationship with slain model Jasmine Fiore told CNN 's Larry King on Thursday night that Fiore never informed her that she had been married .

An arrest warrant has been issued for Ryan Alexander Jenkins , wanted in the death of ex-wife Jasmine Fiore .

Gwendolyn Beauregard said Fiore was a close friend of her two sons , and she met the future model when Fiore was just 11 . Despite the close ties -- `` she called me mommy and she was my daughter '' -- Beauregard was in the dark about Fiore 's marriage to Ryan Jenkins . The marriage reportedly was annulled a few weeks after their Las Vegas , Nevada , wedding .

An arrest warrant for murder has been issued for Jenkins , a reality TV contestant . Authorities believe he 's fled to Canada . Fiore 's body was found Saturday , stuffed into a suitcase and left in a Dumpster in Buena Park , just outside Anaheim in Orange County , California .

Interviewed from San Francisco , California , Beauregard told King all she knew about Jenkins was his initial meeting with Fiore .

`` She did n't tell me that she married him . She told me -LSB- about -RSB- the day that they met , which was St. Patrick 's Day , '' Beauregard said . `` She called me the day after and she said : ` Mommy , I met the most perfect guy in the world and -- and his name is Ryan . ' And she just went on and on and on about Ryan and how perfect he was . And that was all I knew . ''

Beauregard told King she 's never met Ryan Jenkins .

Mike Fleeman , the West Coast editor of People.com , described more details of Fiore 's whirlwind courtship with Jenkins to King .

`` They met in Las Vegas . Two days later -LSB- in March -RSB- , they got married at the Little White Wedding Chapel . That 's , of course , where Britney Spears got married , '' Fleeman told King .

`` It was a quickie wedding . We today talked to somebody who was at the wedding . One of the witnesses was an employee of the chapel . A lot of people were shocked that both of them were married . They kept it under wraps . And the marriage had a lot of problems almost from the very beginning , '' Fleeman said .

Fleeman told King that Jenkins was arrested and charged with domestic assault against Fiore in Nevada in June and that Jenkins was supposed to go to trial in December .

Beauregard told King that Fiore , who was 28 when she died , started modeling in her early 20s .

Despite their deep bond , Beauregard said Fiore had ties with her biological mother , Lisa Lepore . `` She was close to her mother , as well , but it was a different type of closeness . ''

Adding to the horror of the slaying was that Fiore 's teeth had been extracted and her fingers removed .

Criminal profiler Pat Brown told Larry King that act provided key crucial evidence early in the investigation .

`` It was very clear from the very beginning , when they found her body in a piece of luggage , that we were n't dealing with a serial killer . I knew it was somebody who knew her and -LSB- that her killer -RSB- wanted to make sure that she was not identified , '' Brown said .

`` This is why he -LSB- the suspect -LSB- ended up cutting off her fingers ... taking out her teeth . He even got smart . He watched too many crime shows and thought he would get rid of all ID , took away her clothes , put her in the luggage , probably because it 's one way to get her of an apartment . And throw it a Dumpster and hope that time will take care of it , she 'll decompose , they 'll never be able to identify her , '' Brown said .

Jenkins has appeared on VH1 shows `` Megan Wants a Millionaire '' and `` I Love Money 3 . ''

`` This is a very arrogant man , '' Brown said . `` Megan said it right on the show . She said he 's a manipulator . He is . He has evidence of psychopathy there . ''

The brutality of the crime has hit Fiore 's circle of friends hard .

`` Ryan Jenkins is an animal , '' said Robert Hasman , a family friend who said Fiore had been his girlfriend for 2 1/2 years . Watch Hasman speak out ''

`` What he has done to Jasmine is unspeakable . It 's just not right . '' He described her as `` a beautiful person who was a very caring individual . ''

Orange County District Attorney Tony Rackauckas said on `` Larry King Live '' that Jenkins is the only suspect .

`` There is no indication that anybody else might be involved , '' he said .

`` We believe he 's armed because there 's a handgun missing from his apartment , which is the last place he was before ... he fled . So it appears that he 's armed . And he 's certainly dangerous because he 's desperate , '' Rackauckas said .
